Even Odd Out,Fold, Endgame by Amber (R~ish)

Fandom: POPSLASH-NSYNC
Pairing: JC/Chris
Author on lj: [livejournal.com profile] wavinggrain
Author's website: pop content is Just So Pretty

Why this really should be read:

To begin with, it's Amber. Already rec'ed here on the van for popslash and for pretty much every fandom she's written for as Elizabeth, I'm so far from the first person to say what an amazing and inventive writer she is.

Popslash is replete with wow-inducing AUs, many from Amber, and I've always thought popslash had so many AUs because so many of us fell in love the boys' interactions, the way they bounced and edged around each other - more than the setting of international fame and untold wealth. This AU is set in Regency times. If you're not familiar with the rules and manners, the story communicates every slight and mis-step without clunky exposition or pedantic notes, it all just works. If you are familiar with the setting, it's just plain awesome how everything is so right.

Add in a scorching hot romance, great Chris and JC and Justin and everyone and the usual every word is exactly right Amber-times and it's three stories that rock. (Old skool!) Plus, it turned a number of my friends into die-hard never say die JC/Chris OTP writers/readers.
